Welcome to the third workshop in the use of transmission models to simulate foot-and-mouth disease epidemics and the implementation of control actions. SAG | Santiago de Chile | 25 al 28 de marzo de 2024
Course Description
In this workshop, we provide a gentle introduction to various mathematical models used to simulate the spread and control of livestock diseases. You learn how such models can be used to make informed decisions before, during, and after an animal health emergency. We will focus on applying such epidemiological models while demonstrating their use with real data while simulating FMD outbreaks.
